Needed!
We are looking for volunteer teams to work a week at time at Notre Maison. The week can be designed around your talents and interests. We need people willing to provide light physical therapy for special-needs children (no need to be a physical therapist) or to help with planned activities such as summer camp, evening prayer services, structured activities, dance/music programs, knitting, cooking, science experiments, etc.
At different times of the year, we need help from people willing to work with the children preparing pictures, drawings, and videos for their sponsors.
Notre Maison is also in need of light onsite maintenance work (we will provide a list of maintenance work that needs to be done).
In addition to your planned activities, we can set up a morning or evening meeting for you to visit with Madame Gertrude to learn more about Notre Maison, the children, the activities, and plans for the future.
If you are interested in more information about helping at Notre Maison, please contact us at [email protected].
While you organize the trip details Stateside (tickets, flights, documentation, etc.), we will plan your trip in Haiti.

We love to have guests come to Notre Maison/St. Joe's because the children thrive on the attention they receive. It is also a way for visitors to meet the kids, become familiar with the orphanage compound, learn about the programs available for the children, and possibly become more involved with the ministries going on.
Whether a first-time visitor or a "regular," we hope that you will look at the attached information to help you plan your visit to Notre Maison/St. Joe's: Guidelines for Visiting Volunteers Guidelines for Guest House Visitors |
